LOL! I also have a new direction for my SP after reading a post of hers...I will keep #1 mugrug for myself or gift to someone else and will make a new one for my partner. I like getting more specifics, even though it means changing since we have so much time still.

To my SP: I had posted that I would like a tea infuser, a fellow board member has one that she no longer needs and is sending it to me.

I thought I didn't like lime green either but like yellow, in small quanties, its pretty good for additives. for those who CANT HAVE SWEETS or HAVE ALLERGIES: ideas! I say pins! patterns, tea or coffee or sugar free hot chocolates for those who cant have sugar. I think fabric fat quarters! small easy to send and well loved for sure. think outside the box, maybe a little recipe book from your own area a little league book maybe? if you have a favorite book why not find her a copy(used is ok). kitchen hot pads and towels are loved. if you cant do that perhaps sewing needles for finish work! basic things like thread well I went through an entire box of scrap thread from a Jaba last year. a whole box of it! enough for small projects which I do often for a good feeling lol. (ie like I FINISHED IT!) .. a new seam ripper they tend to get dull here quickly. I now use a surgical nurses tool for ripping seams and wonder how did I use the little ripper I had for years and years. a thank you again to Jaba for this. Scared the heck out of me at first now I couldn't do without it. a pin cusion! everyone loves a pin cushion! a quilt magazine! lots of ideas of things that easy to send, small ( a town magnet from your city for the fridge!) get creative. you can send what you like, what your partner likes just note if they are allergic or diabetic please don't send them tempting things they cant have. Me? I am not to eat much salt.. sigh.. I do however lol on occasion. otherwise I just eat quick. I cant afford the water addition due to kidneys not working. and don't have a tremendous sweet tooth though I ate a tootsie roll lst night for some reason. no clue why either. lol. if its there.. it goes. my husband has a tremendous sweet tooth so sweet never ever last here. I hid the Halloween candy or it would be gone.. again. I had it. only have to remember now where I hid it. a good, safe place. oh dear.

Sigh I put things away that keep turning up when I don't need them. Now I can't remember where I put them.

Both Fossil Ferns and batiks have pretty colors and blends, but I don't care for the splotchy irregularity. I know this is natural. I do have a few, a couple were gifts and one I just had to buy though I don't know what to do with it.

I like many of the marbled fabrics and also have a large variety of TOTs by various manufacturers. I also like brights and dots. Dots are cheerful to me. Not the globby irregular ones just regular round dots in any size or cheery color. Then there are butterflies, and butterflies, and did I mention butterflies! I think I have more prints with butterflies than any other motif. I favor the airy type where there is space, but I have all types TOT and general collection prints and Oriental collections prints and blenders.

As many of you have said, I will be happy with whatever I receive. I even have the discipline to wait for opening day!
